Label swapper device for spectral amplitude coded optical packet networks monolithically integrated on InP
2011
In this paper the design, fabrication and experimental characterization of an spectral amplitude coded (SAC) optical label swapper monolithically integrated on Indium Phosphide (InP) is presented. The device has a footprint of 4.8x1.5 mm 2 and is able to perform label swapping operations required in SAC at a speed of 155 Mbps. The device was manufactured in InP using a multiple purpose generic integration scheme. Compared to previous SAC label swapper demonstrations, using discrete component assembly, this label swapper chip operates two order of magnitudes faster. © 2011 Optical Society of America.

Controlled solution-based fabrication of perovskite thin films directly on conductive substrate
2021
Abstract Organometallic perovskites are one of the most investigated materials for high-efficiency thin-film devices to convert solar energy and supply energy. In particular, methylammonium lead iodide has been used to realize thin-film perovskite solar cells, achieving an efficiency higher than 20%. Different fabrication procedures based on the spin-coating technique have been proposed, which do not ensure homogenous morphologies. In this work, we present a scalable process to fabricate methylammonium lead iodide thin films directly on conductive substrates, consisting of electrodeposition and two subsequent chemical conversions. A thorough investigation of the morphological, structural an…
Efficient Vacuum Deposited P-I-N Perovskite Solar Cells by Front Contact Optimization.
2020
Hole transport layers HTLs are of fundamental importance in perovskite solar cells PSCs , as they must ensure an efficient and selective hole extraction, and ohmic charge transfer to the corresponding electrodes. In p i n solar cells, the ITO HTL is usually not ohmic, and an additional interlayer such as MoO3 is usually placed in between the two materials by vacuum sublimation. In this work, we evaluated the properties of the MoO3 TaTm TaTm is the HTL N4,N4,N4 amp; 8243;,N4 amp; 8243; tetra [1,1 amp; 8242; biphenyl] 4 yl [1,1 amp; 8242; 4 amp; 8242;,1 amp; 8243; terphenyl] 4,4 amp; 8243; diamine hole extraction interface by selectively annealing either MoO3 prior to the deposition of TaTm o…
3D Colloidal photonic crystal fabrication improved by AC fields for frequency conversion enhancement in photovoltaics
2011
We report on the fabrication of high-quality 3D colloidal photonic crystals, whose finality is to modify the emission properties of frequency converters for photovoltaic applications. The band structure of the photonic crystals can be used to enhance the emission of down- and up-converters materials embedded in the 3D structures. However, in order to achieve an efficient conversion the first step is to obtain highly ordered templates with appropriated dimensions. We analyze here the photonic crystals obtained by the dip-coating or vertical deposition method. Moreover, by using perpendicular AC fields during the assembly of the nanospheres, the quality of the packed structures has been impro…
Highly-sensitive anisotropic porous silicon based optical sensors
2012
The modeling, fabrication and characterization of PSi fabricated from both (110) and (100) surface oriented silicon for optical sensing is thoroughly reported. First, based on the generalized Bruggeman method, the birefringence and sensitivity of the fabricated membranes were calculated as a function of the fabrication parameters such as porosity and pore sizes; and external effects, such as the pores surface oxidation. Thereafter we report on the fabrication of PSi membranes from (110) and (100) surface oriented silicon with pore sizes in the range of 50 - 80 nm, and the characterization of their birefringence using a polarimetric setup. Their sensitivities were determined by filling the p…
Chalcogenide thin films for direct resistors fabrication and trimming
2004
Abstract The fabrication of thin film resistors based on Ge–Sb–Te chalcogenide alloys is proposed. By exploiting the phase change properties of the deposited film, a laser beam is used for inducing a transition from high to low resistivity along selected paths. Conductivity changes as high as four orders of magnitude can be routinely achieved. This candidates the technique for maskless fabrication of compact precision resistors for a variety of applications.
Mode cleaning in graphene oxide-doped polymeric whispering gallery mode microresonators
2020
The strategy to incorporate graphene oxide (GO) in a composite material offers significant opportunities to realize compact photonic devices, such as saturable absorbers and polarization selective devices. However, the processing of GO-based composites by direct laser writing, which would afford vast patterning and material flexibility in a single step process, has been little addressed. In this work, we investigated the mechanisms underlying a mode cleaning effect in polymeric whispering gallery mode microresonators containing GO, aiming at the development of on-chip integrable photonic devices. We fabricated the microresonators (cavity loaded Q-factor of 20 000 at 1550 nm) in a single ste…
Polarization Modulation Instability in Dispersion-Engineered Photonic Crystal Fibers
2021
Generation of widely spaced polarization modulation instability (PMI) sidebands in a wide collection of photonic crystal fibers (PCF), including liquid-filled PCFs, is reported. The contribution of chromatic dispersion and birefringence to the net linear phase mismatch of PMI is investigated in all-normal dispersion PCFs and in PCFs with one (or two) zero dispersion wavelengths. Large frequency shift sidebands are demonstrated experimentally. Suitable fabrication parameters for air-filled and liquid-filled PCFs are proposed as guidelines for the development of dual-wavelength light sources based on PMI.
Fabrication and Photoelectrochemical Behavior of Ordered CIGS Nanowire Arrays for Application in Solar Cells
2010
In this work, we report some preliminary results concerning the fabrication of quaternary copper, indium, gallium, and selenium CIGS nanowires that were grown inside the channels of an anodic alumina membrane by one-step potentiostatic deposition at different applied potentials and room temperature. A tunable nanowire composition was achieved through a manipulation of the applied potential and electrolyte composition. X-ray diffraction analysis showed that nanowires, whose chemical composition was determined by energy-dispersive spectroscopy analysis, were amorphous. A composition of Cu0.203In0.153Ga0.131Se0.513, very close to the stoichiometric value, was obtained. These nanostructures wer…
